If I Ever Lost You... |

My longest day would become but a second compared to this day if I ever lost you.. Life as lived would cease.. Torment’s tentacles would entangle me as seeds of hell were planted. Dark of night would blind me as the reaper’s door closed behind. Tears flowing in a endless torrent wash away my eyes. Screams of agony, stifled by bit lips would echo within my being as despair overflowed from the well , and my will drowned. Love's whispery shadow would not grace my door again. |

Always true artistry in the expression of our greatest joys and deepests sorrows... But the expression of our fears are the very shields that we shapen to meet them face to face. Well done archer! ThisDiamond |

Magnus darling boy oh how utterly unbearable is the pain written in this. If this should ever happen to you I know that your soul would bleed for eternity. How heart wrenching this is, you’ve written the pain of this soooooo well. Don’t ever lose her or yourself darling man, for where would we be without your wonderful poetry Take heart, there's light it beckons go forward to your destined fate, where you shine, I know it I Love and warm stuff As always Mushy To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 [This message has been edited by Marsha (03-18-2002 11:08 AM).] |

I know this feeling. Have you heard the saying that I want to live with you forever, and die one minute before you? Beautiful love shining here. Sandra |
